After the diagnosis of transsexuality is well
definated and recognized in most western countries, the surgical
transformation of the genital area is performed. Before surgical treatment
an exact psychiatric clarification is absolutely essential. The operation is
the last part of a long treatment.
The surgical result in the more common
female transsexual is quite reasonable. The treatment of the fewer male
transsexuals is not solved completely, especially the reliable techniques
for penis reconstructions are not very sufficient.
